Fate

A pair of blue eyes
As deep as the ocean
A smile on his lips
So weary from his past worries

He dresses so well
No doubt he's great at it 
All they see is greatness
But behind all that layers, there's a lonely man 

It wasn't due to his hatred towards the world
Not due to its occupants either
His broken heart just won't mend 
Despite the years he'd spent

He had been on his knees
Begging for forgiveness, chances, for all he could think of then
Didn't God ever told you
What's bound to happen, will happen?

Her eyes, closed forever
Her breath, stopped gasping
A mother, he loved so much is gone forever
And all that's left is just memories of her
